8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Pump does not start | No power; Controller issue; Motor blocked | Check power connection. Ensure controller is properly connected. Disconnect power, remove pump, and check for impeller blockages. |
| Low water flow | Impeller clogged; Tubing obstructed; Flow setting too low | Clean impeller and pump intake. Check tubing for kinks or blockages. Increase flow setting on controller or app. |
| Unusual noise/vibration | Impeller debris; Improper seating; Air in pump | Clean impeller. Ensure pump is securely seated and fully submerged. Gently shake pump to release trapped air. |
| WiFi connection issues | Incorrect network; App error; Router distance | Verify WiFi credentials. Restart app and controller. Move router closer or use a WiFi extender. |
